The sales of dog licenses in Ashland County are higher than a year ago, and the number of licenses sold could see a bigger spike from dog owners trying to avoid a citation from Dog Warden Tom Kosht.
Kosht told the board of Ashland County Commissioners during Thursday's meeting that a total of 9,150 licenses had been sold, which was up from 8,807 this time a year ago. The cost of a one-year dog license was raised from $14 to $16 in 2014.
Kosht said he has issued citations for unlicensed dogs to nine people so far this year.
